As a member of the PartnerNetwork, Harpak-ULMA is teaming with Rockwell Automation to facilitate the development of smart, connected packaging solutions.

The NanEyeM is also available in surface-mount chip form. The NanEyeXS and NanEyeM image sensors will be available for sampling in January 2019.

InnovaGel, a manufacturer of vitamins and supplements in the nutraceutical and OTC market, was in need of solution for its soft gelatin encapsulation machine application. Endress+Hauser was able to provide a level measurement solution that best fit InnovaGel’s application needs.

By providing integrated networks with tested interoperability and documented in validated reference designs, the two companies help to ensure that integrated OT/IT systems can be installed, operated more securely, and supported efficiently.

As a security gateway, LEC-6041 possesses two key hardware features, including programmable LAN bypass technology and TPM 2.0 onboard.

The suite delivers visibility of operations and systems status from one source of information inside the organization.

The Festo CPX-FB36 is the first Rockwell Automation third-party device that provides FactoryTalk Analytics for Devices (Shelby) with valve terminal health and diagnostic details.

A thermocouple contains two different conductors that produce a voltage proportional to a temperature difference between the ends of a pair of conductors.

As of now, product manufacturers can use the seal to promote their battery-free, wireless switches integrating EnOcean’s energy harvesting technology for wireless standards in the sub-1 GHz and 2.4 GHz range.

Sinn’s core focus will be helping companies, leveraging the MonarchFx ecosystem, to build customer-centric fulfillment systems.

Intended for basic ICS security monitoring, this version is free of charge and easy to configure. No special technical knowledge is needed. Downloading and getting started with PT ISIM freeView Sensor takes minutes.

Executives at respondent companies, ranging from manufacturers to trade contractors and oil and gas companies, are collecting more data from connected devices, integrating it with other systems in new ways, and making IoT more central to their businesses.

Power is generated by hydro plants located in the northern and western areas of the country and by wind farms located along the east coast. It is then transmitted over long distances to urban load centers located in the southeast.

Clippard designs and manufacturers over 5,000 standard and custom products including electronic, control and isolation valves, cylinders, manifolds, FRLs, actuators, custom assemblies and much more.

By Martin Grune & Patrick Kraus, infoteam Software AG How can production be optimized, where can improvement opportunities be found, which processes may even indirectly slow down operative business from the background? Overall Equipment Effectiveness (GAE) or Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) has established itself as the key performance indicator for this.

The certifications are based on the IEC 62443-2-4 and IEC 62443-3-3 standards, which lay a foundation of cyber defense mechanisms for automation system networks and cover the specific requirements for developing and designing secure systems.

The drives now offer an expanded power range, for engineers with applications from 10 to 6,000 horsepower (7.5 to 4,500 kW). The expansion brings harmonic mitigation, regeneration and common bus-system configurations to a range of high-demand applications.

The single-phase 12 V and 24 V power supply units have an input for alternating voltage which also enables the connection to direct voltage and is particularly resistant to undervoltage and overvoltage.

Common applications for the RCN 6000 encoders are large-scale rotary tables and radio telescopes which can adapt their design to the encoder while the integrated stator coupling ensures alignment of the components involved in the scanning process, even if there are deviations in the shaft coupling.

ISA has created a continuous improvement culture that sets a framework for sustainable growth and value for members, automation professionals, and customers.
